well i thinking about hardwiring, but i want to see how everyone mounts/hardwires their RD so for this post just contribute by posting pics of your mounted or hardwired RD.

My detector will not mount in a straight line beside the rear view and doesn't have enought space between the roof line and the mirror so I decided to mount right under it. The detection is outstanding...... Mount High and get a Jammer if your worried about laser.

This is where my V1 is except on the otherside of the mirror, and I have since upgraded to a 1.8 and rewired it a few times.

Here is my Lifespeed remote display, behind the honda clock.

heres mine, I did a more detailed writeup of the smart cord instal in the escrot forum a month ago so I will spare the details its pretty self explainatory really...

and this is the best picture I could find of the mounting location, its under the mirror to save some laser sensitivity and I am unsure if the tint is metal...

I will post another pic when I get the V1 in the next couple of weeks, payday is coming soon...

I want to hardwire my X50 but I would never be able to do what Arashi did... Holy $hit man thats alot of work... Very clean install though. I really need to hardwire mine soon so it doesnt look tacky with that cord just hanging from under my RVM all the way down to the cig lighter 3 spliter I have mounted in my car by my leg. I must keep the smart cable though, i like that mute button by my leg way to much, its just nice to have. Thanks for starting this post Criticize, the pics that people have been showing are VERY HELPFUL to me. 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
